Once you land at Tribhuvan International Airport, our office employees will greet you and bring you directly to your hotel. You will be introduced to other staff members and your tour guides after freshening up from the day’s travel. After we finish our briefing session and go over the day schedule and the overall plan, the day is officially over. At that point, you are free to leave and spend the rest of the nice evening in the nearby area. Spend the night in Kathmandu.
The first day of the tour is today, and we start out by traveling over to Pokhara. The ride continues via the serpentine twists of the Prithvi Highway, passing through the gorgeous hills that surround Kathmandu as we leave the city. The route follows the Trishuli River toward the west, passing through a number of cities until arriving at the breathtaking Pokhara valley. Visit the World peace pagoda and Fewa Lake while you are in Pokhara. Stay the night in Pokhara.
The first leg of our excursion is a drive to the trailhead in Kande. The trip is enjoyable since it gives us our first glimpse of the region’s breathtaking splendor, the Annapurna Region. We start our ascent after arriving in Kande by going through the verdant green forests to the Australian Camp. This is the Annapurna Range’s beautiful vista that receives the most visitors. We take a break at the camp to take in the breathtaking Himalayan vistas. The trail leads through the Deurali to the forest camp after passing the breathtaking rhododendron forests. Spend the night in Forest Camp.
We begin our steady ascent through the verdant green woodlands decorated with pine and rhododendron trees from the forest camp. The trail was only recently opened, thus huge stretches of it are frequently deserted. The gorgeous slopes on the horizon give way to expose the breathtaking vistas of Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,693m) and Mardi Himal as the trail progressively ascends to low camp (5,587m). When we get at low camp, we have two options: we may relax after a long day of trekking, or we can hike up to Badal Danda for better Himalayan views. Sleep in a low camp.
We leave Low Camp and start climbing to the Badal Danda viewpoint for breathtaking views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Ranges. The trail leaves behind the tree lines past the hamlet of Badal Danda, choosing instead to travel through the Himalayan wilderness and alpine plants. We arrive at the High Camp, which is at an elevation of 3,550m, as the ever-present Himalayas on the horizon draw nearer to us. The clearing is home to three teahouses and offers breathtaking Himalayan vistas. Spend the night in High Camp.
Today is one of the more taxing and difficult days of the journey as we make our way to the Mardi Himal Base Camp, also known as the Upper View Point, which is located at a height of 4,500m. The route is more difficult than usual and includes steep ascents and descents. The journey ascends the rugged Himalayan path till it crests at Mardi Himal Base Camp, from which we continue hiking for an additional two hours to reach the highest viewpoint. The views from the viewpoint are as mesmerizing as we claim they are, featuring an unforgettable Himalayan panorama that includes Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m), Mt. Hiunchuli (6,441m), Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,993m), Mardi Himal (6,687m), and Annapurna South (7,219m), along with several other peaks of the Annapurna Range.
We will begin our trek down the slopes starting today. After leaving High camp, the track makes its way back to Low camp. From there, we depart from the traditional Mardi journey and begin a downward run into Siding. One of the original Gurung villages, the area sees very few visitors, making it an excellent option to stay for anyone looking for a day off—even from the sporadic throngs at Mardi Himal. Spend the night in Siding.
Our trek’s final day takes us back to Pokhara. As it passes through the last portions of the breathtaking Annapurna region, the trip is straightforward. Because the two cities are connected by roads, you can also decide to drive back to Pokhara, which takes around three hours and gives you more time to see the magnificent city. As soon as we arrive in Pokhara, we head straight for the hotel, which marks the end of our trek activities. Once more, you are free to leave the area and enjoy the breathtaking lakeside views.
We start our day early and bid farewell to the Annapurna region as we leave the beautiful city of Pokhara. We return around the familiar bends of the Prithvi Highway on our way to the capital city, traveling alongside the beautiful Trishuli River. When we arrive in Kathmandu, we head straight to the hotel, where a romantic farewell meal is waiting for us. Spend the night in Kathmandu.
Just in time for your trip back home, our staff will drop you off at Tribhuvan International Airport once more. We sincerely hope you enjoyed your time with us and we hope to see you soon.

One of the most beautiful and difficult trekking locations in the world is the Annapurna Region To ensure your safety, comfort, and pleasure during your trek, the appropriate gear is crucial. When trekking in the Annapurna Region you should bring the following items, among others:
Access the Asia Treks offers its customers a thorough packing list, equipment rental choices, and guidance on the best supplies for their trekking requirements. In order to complete their trek to the Mardi himal trek securely and comfortably, we want to make sure that our clients have all the required supplies.
The Mardi Himal Trek is a popular choice for hikers looking for a less crowded and off-the-beaten-path Annapurna adventure. The Annapurna range, including Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) and Mardi Himal, is seen from here. The trail passes through a variety of scenery, including lush forests, rhododendron groves, and high alpine meadows. It delivers a shorter yet satisfying trekking experience, lasting 6 to 9 days. The Mardi Himal Trek is a superb opportunity to see the beauty of the Himalayas in a more private environment, thanks to the calm surroundings, tranquility, and unique cultural exchanges with Gurung communities.
The optimum seasons to go on the Mardi Himal Trek are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). These months have the best weather and trail conditions for trekking in the area. The weather is nice in the spring, with clear skies and blossoming rhododendron woods giving vibrant hues to the environment. Autumn delivers clear skies, good visibility, and mild temperatures, allowing for breathtaking vistas of the neighboring peaks. With warm daytime temperatures and chilly nights, both seasons offer a pleasant trekking experience. Winter (December to February) can be very cold with significant snowfall, and the monsoon season (June to August) brings frequent rain showers, making them less suitable for the Mardi Himal Trek.
Yes, there are customizing possibilities for the Mardi Himal Trek. Access the Asia Treks provides flexible itineraries that can be adjusted to your own choices and needs. You can discuss the duration, certain places or areas you wish to see, and the amount of difficulty you are comfortable with our experts. Adjusting the amount of days, adding side visits to neighboring locations, inserting rest days for acclimatization, or having cultural activities along the road are all options for customization. You can construct a personalized Mardi Himal Trek that suits your interests and demands by conveying your preferences and collaborating with Access the Asia Treks.
The chance to suffer from altitude sickness during the Annapurna Short Trek is low. The highest point reached on this walk is normally around 3,210 meters (10,531 feet) at Poon Hill, which is not considered a dangerously high height. Individual sensitivity to altitude sickness varies, therefore it’s critical to be aware of the symptoms and take the required precautions. It is best to ascend gently, stay hydrated, and listen to your body. If altitude sickness symptoms such as headaches or dizziness emerge, it is best to descend to a lower altitude and rest until the symptoms pass. In terms of altitude sickness, the Annapurna Short walk is considered a rather safe walk. To ensure a safe and happy trekking experience, be prepared, keep a sensible pace, and pay attention to your body’s signals.
